Ok… just thought I would let ya all know that we have finally bought a house… but we won’t be moving in till the last week of June (or maybe the first week or two into July). We are in limbo at the moment… living in a temporary spot. But our situation is great… and I am so grateful for an actual date and place to look forward to in the future. (Let the countdown begin! Yay!)

The place we picked needs a LOT of updating and TLC… but it’s a great house… and I’m having fun picking out new everything! (new paint, carpet, trim, doors, hardware, fixtures etc etc etc…) It’s a big project though!!!

Hi there! Just a quickie update… we actually sold our house! It took all of three days sitting on the market… and a nice family showed up and gave us a full price offer and we accepted! (Must have been meant to be right?)

Sooo…

Now we’re in major house hunt mode. I feel like we’re in limbo… and can’t wait to settle back down again. It’s spring break though this week… so we’ll be off to the beach soon and spend some time with my parents.

Here’s a random pic to make ya smile :

My girls on crazy hair day (for school)… they insisted on having braids that stuck out from their heads. Silly girls had wire woven through their hair ALL DAY! (I would think that would get annoying… but I guess we all suffer for beauty right? LOL!)

And here’s a pic of Ty doing one of his FAVORITE things ever… feeding the ducks! (This kid just can’t get enough of it!)

And just to give equal ‘pic’ time to all my kiddos… here is Ryan on one of his recent preschool field trips :

Ok… well the back of his head at least! Ha ha! He’s wearing the brown hoodie in the front of this pic. We took our preschoolers to the grocery store for their latest field trip… and it was so fun! The store had employees that took the kids from department to department (dairy section, cereal aisle, produce, bakery etc) and gave the kids food samples all along the way. This picture is from the seafood/butcher section of the store where the kids were getting up close and personal with a crab! So fun!

Wowzas! Where in the world would I be without my patient, hard-working, generous, and fun friends!!!??? (Smack, dab in the middle of nowheresville… that’s where! AND probably bald from pulling out my hair… heh heh heh) I have had an insanely crazy couple of weeks… and I think just now I might see a glimmer of light trying to peek it’s way out at the end of this LOOOOOOOOONG tunnel I’m chuggin’ on through. Choo choo! (I’m just going to pretend that I’m the little engine that could… and keep saying, “I think I can, I think I can… hee hee hee…) My friends have helped me so much, kept me sane, and given me confidence. I am so grateful. (Awww… warm fuzzies right?)

We actually have a SIGN out in front of our house now… guess there isn’t any backing out of selling now eh? LOL! I’ve just been finishing up with a little bit of cleaning and our house will be ‘officially listed’ as of Tuesday. Woohoo! Let’s get that ball rolling eh?

WHY I SCRAP

Hmmm.... come on now.... what's not to love? I love the perpetual state of learning.... you can't really ever 'know it all' in the world of digital scrapbooking. (Not that I am anywhere CLOSE.) Creating something that won't have to be 're-done' tomorrow (ie laundry, diapers, dinner etc etc etc) also has a HIGH level of appeal! LOL!

ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Beth and I have been digi-scrapping since 2007 and I have loved the experience! My scrapping 'style' varies from day to day... I like trying out new techniques and my layouts change with my current interests. Other than digital scrapbooking, I am a SAHM of four young, crazy kiddos.... and they keep me very busy! I have been married for 12 years - and I'm lucky enough to be hitched to my best friend and sweetheart. I'm a sucker for ice cream and chocolate... and I love to laugh! I hope you will enjoy my designs and come back to visit me here often!
